Brief Ground Location
The Mestalla is conveniently located in the centre of Valencia, just to the east of the old centre, and north west of the port. Although from 2011 the club are scheduled to move into the Nou Mestalla, which is in the north-west of the city. For more information about the stadium, use the Stadium Info link on the left.
Fans & Foes
Arguably the biggest club in Spain behind Real Madrid and Barcelona (at least in terms of titles and trophies), Valencia have a mean domestic and European pedigree: a record of 6 La Ligas, 7 Copa del Reys alongside 7 major European final appearances (1 UEFA Cup, 1 Cup Winners Cup and 2 Fairs Cup titles) speaks volumes of the club's pedigree.
Founded in 1919, and having found their home at the Mestalla in 1923, Valencia's main period of dominance came at the turn of the century, as they racked up domestic titles in 2002 and 2004, alongside back-to-back appearances in Champions League finals in 2000 and 2001 (losing to Real Madrid and Bayern Munich respectively).
Recently, however, money troubles have hit the Spanish side, necessitating the sale of superstars such as David Villa and David Silva.
